Isaayyaas 61

1 Sababii Waaqayyo akka ani hiyyeeyyiitti oduu gaarii lallabuuf na dibeef, Hafuurri Waaqayyo Gooftaa narra jira. Inni akka ani garaa cabe fayyisuuf, akka ani boojiʼamtootaaf bilisummaa, warra hidhamaniif immoo hiikamuu lallabuuf na ergeera;

The Spirit of the Lord Jehovah is upon me, because Jehovah hath anointed me to announce glad tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and opening of the prison to them that are bound;

2 akka ani bara tola Waaqayyootii fi guyyaa haaloo baʼuu Waaqa keenyaa labsuuf, akka ani warra booʼan hunda jajjabeessuuf,

to proclaim the acceptable year of Jehovah, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn;

3 akka ani warra Xiyoon keessatti gaddaniif arjoomee, qooda daaraa miidhagina, qooda booʼichaa, zayitii gammachuu, qooda abdii kutachuu immoo, wayyaa galataa kennuuf na erge. Isaanis qilxuu qajeelummaa, biqiltuu Waaqayyo, kan inni ittiin kabajamu jedhamanii waamaman.

to appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, that beauty should be given unto them instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, the garment of praise instead of the spirit of heaviness: that they might be called terebinths of righteousness, the planting of Jehovah, that he may be glorified.

4 Isaan waan dur diigame deebisanii ijaaru; iddoowwan bara dheeraan dura onanii turanis akka duraatti deebisu; magaalaawwan diigaman, kanneen dhaloota hedduun dura onanii turan ni haaromsu.

And they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the waste cities, the places desolate from generation to generation.

5 Alagoonni bushaayee keessan ni tiksu; ormoonnis lafa qotiisaa fi iddoo dhaabaa wayinii keessanii keessa ni hojjetu.

And strangers shall stand and feed your flocks, and the sons of the alien shall be your ploughmen and your vinedressers.

6 Isin luboota Waaqayyoo jedhamtanii ni waamamtu; tajaajiltoota Waaqa keenyaa jedhamtaniis ni moggaafamtu. Isin qabeenya sabootaa ni nyaattu; badhaadhummaa isaaniitiin illee ni boontu.

But as for you, ye shall be called priests of Jehovah; it shall be said of you: Ministers of our God. Ye shall eat the wealth of the nations, and into their glory shall ye enter.

7 Qooda qaanii keessanii hiree dachaa ni argattu; qooda salphinaa isin dhaala keessanitti ni gammaddu; kanaafuu isin biyya keessan keessatti hiree dachaa ni dhaaltu; gammachuun bara baraas kan keessan.

Instead of your shame [ye shall have] double; instead of confusion they shall celebrate with joy their portion: therefore in their land they shall possess the double; everlasting joy shall be unto them.

8 “Ani Waaqayyo murtii qajeelaa nan jaalladhaatii; saamichaa fi yakka nan jibba. Ani amanamummaa kootiin isaan nan badhaasa; kakuu bara baraas isaan wajjin nan gala.

For I, Jehovah, love judgment, I hate robbery with wrong; and I will give their recompence in truth, and I will make an everlasting covenant with them.

9 Sanyiin isaanii saboota gidduutti, ijoolleen isaanii immoo uummata gidduutti ni beekamu. Warri isaan argan hundi, akka isaan saba Waaqayyo eebbise taʼan ni beeku.”

And their seed shall be known among the nations, and their offspring among the peoples: all that see them shall acknowledge them, that they are a seed that Jehovah hath blessed.

10 Ani Waaqayyo itti guddaa nan gammada; lubbuun koos akka malee Waaqa kootti gammaddi. Inni akkuma misirrichi akka lubaatti mataa isaa miidhagfatu, misirrittiin immoo faayaan of bareechitu sana, wayyaa fayyinaa natti uffiseera uffata qajeelummaa narra buuseeraatii.

I will greatly rejoice in Jehovah, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for he hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, he hath covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decketh himself with the priestly turban, and as a bride adorneth herself with her jewels.

11 Akkuma lafti biqiltuu biqilchitee iddoon biqiltuu immoo akka sanyiin guddattu godhu sana Waaqayyo Gooftaan akka qajeelummaa fi galanni fuula saboota hundaa duratti biqilan ni godha.

For as the earth bringeth forth her bud, and as a garden causeth the things that are sown in it to spring forth, so the Lord Jehovah will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations.
